Meguro Museum of Art, Tokyo

TIME : 2016/2/17 14:06:36

Half local, half global, one part of this museum exhibits the work of Meguro artists, while the other is dedicated to international fine art and craft exhibits (think the work of Charles and Ray Eames). The building is a delight – it’s airy, spacious and well lit compared with many other Tokyo art museums, which can want for space – and there’s a coffee shop with pleasant views of the grounds. Take the west exit of Meguro Station, walk straight ahead down Meguro-dōri and turn right just after crossing Meguro River (Meguro-gawa). Walk along the river and the museum is on your left, past the tennis court and swimming pool.
